Feeding a Football-er

I love the twists and turns in life. You're going along down a particular path, and then...whoa...I didn't REALIZE there was a fork in the road but apparently we took it! So, I interviewed for a job this week. As my husband puts it, I'm so 'better than that job' - and educationally, and experientially, I am. I could get a much better paying job if I went back full time. But, this job I can do from home, and it pays a little bit, and we will enjoy the benefits of it. I got the approval from the first round interview, but for some reason, they have asked me to come back for a second set of interviews with a set of managers. MAYBE a good thing? I don't know how to take it. I know others who have gotten the job didn't have to do the second interview. SO. I don't know. But, that's a good 6 weeks before I would start, and then do 5 weeks of training, and in the mean time, I need to get things around this household figured out so we don't have any problemos. My old blog...is apparently dead. When we moved servers, they lost my database. Wah. I'm a LITTLE sad...because I've blogged for...(counting on my fingers) 12 years? 13? November will be my 13th 'blogiversary'. I am a little sad ALL my history is gone. But at the same time, completely ambivalent. I have to learn how to feed a football player. Or, to be specific, two. I hadn't given it much thought until child #3 attended pre-season conditioning this week, and at the parent meeting they specifically addressed food. Because of the 'heavy workouts' they'll be doing, they need heavier meals, and more snacks - but, protein heavy, not just anything. SO, in addition to now planning out our meals better again, I need to account for the right kinds of snacks for the boys. And for that matter, for the hubby. Last night we had another blood sugar tank - I don't know how low because he didn't test until this morning. 56 when he tested. So not a good value. Time to head back to the doc, because the 3 AM meltdowns where he can't even speak are pretty scary. Watched Machine Gun Preacher last night with Oldest child. I like the story to a point...I just thought it would be more about how deep the main character's faith is - and how God worked in his life. Of course that's there, but more as a subtext, you know? I guess it was played down for mainstream approval? Don't know. Anyway - back to the school grind. I have one kiddo with school orientation today and tomorrow, then a week of rest before it all kicks up again!
